"St. George and the Dragon" is a renowned painting by the Italian Renaissance master Raphael, also known as Raffaello Sanzio of Urbino. Created around 1504-1506, this artwork is one of Raphael's early masterpieces, showcasing his burgeoning talent and the influence of his contemporaries, including Leonardo da Vinci and Michelangelo. The painting depicts the legendary tale of Saint George, a Christian martyr, heroically slaying a dragon to save a princess and liberate a town from the beast's terror.

The composition of "St. George and the Dragon" is marked by its dynamic movement and dramatic intensity. Saint George is portrayed mounted on a rearing horse, his lance poised to deliver the fatal blow to the dragon, which is depicted in a twisted, serpentine form. The princess, often interpreted as a symbol of the Church or purity, is shown in the background, adding a narrative depth to the scene. Raphael's use of vibrant colors, meticulous attention to detail, and mastery of perspective are evident in this work, reflecting the artistic innovations of the High Renaissance.

The painting is also notable for its symbolic elements. Saint George's armor and the dragon's menacing appearance are rendered with a level of realism that enhances the mythic quality of the scene. The landscape, with its serene yet foreboding atmosphere, serves as a backdrop that contrasts with the violent encounter, highlighting Raphael's ability to blend naturalism with allegory.

"St. George and the Dragon" is housed in the National Gallery of Art in Washington, D.C., where it continues to be a subject of admiration and scholarly study. The painting not only exemplifies Raphael's early artistic development but also contributes to the rich tapestry of Renaissance art, encapsulating themes of heroism, faith, and the eternal struggle between good and evil.
